Honestly, if I could never hear the word “deal” again, that would be great. We used to have other words, like treaty or agreement or compact or accord. Now thanks to Trump it’s just “deals”, “the best deal” “nuclear deal” “trade deal” “I love making deals” Just. Stop.

Folks in the DC area: remember if you see someone in MAGA gear who looks lost, kindly give them incorrect directions.

Here we go again, conservatives conflating minor property damage with the destruction of human lives.

Reached the age where I realized I need to do daily stretches. Hopefully this prevents some other issues from getting worse.

Always check your hotel prices before travel. Saved $350 by canceling previous reservation and rebooking. Only works if not paying in advance.

Tech teams naming themselves leads to some interesting conversations. Can be having a serious discussion about a feature then be like “Yeah we are waiting on Dumbledore’s Wand to release their fix before proceeding” #productmanagement

Retail therapy is great and all, but have you ever finally dropped off that bag of clothes at the donation center? Liberating.

Parents decided they want to be cord cutters. So my Saturday morning was installing a web of logins tied to different bundle streaming deals with their cable company. Yes there were duplicate accounts for various streaming services.

The beach resort rush to get chairs, umbrellas, and prime positioning every morning kinda defeats the purpose of vacation. Anyway I dragged my chair though the sand at 7am. Gotta do what you gotta do.

Off to Puerto Rico to disassociate for a few days. Though I’ll probably still be on here. Just rum fueled.

The true secret to one bag travel: shoes. Not the bag. One pair. The ones you have on. That’s it. No shoes in the bag. Maybe flip flops in the bag. But that’s it.

So... if the tariffs are being removed does that mean we are liberated? Or is the liberating on hold for 90 days? What is the status of the liberation?

Nobody is coming to save us. He will not come to his senses. His advisors and party lack the courage to take action. Strap in.

This is like a self inflicted gunshot while stepping in your own bear trap and punching yourself in the nuts all at once. Totally avoidable. Chaos and pain by his own design.

My fellow Millennials ready for yet another economic downturn/recession caused by Republican policies?

To Trump’s credit, it normally takes a new Republican president a couple years to topple the Economy the prior Democratic president built.

Good on the people of Vermont for protesting JD Vance today. Trump and his goons should never know peace in public. Protest them every step of the way in every public space they enter.
